My dog just ate a 70% isopropyl alcohol prep pad for my screen protector. It wasn’t that big. Are there any Major symptoms I should be worried about.

The isopropyl alcohol is unlikely to cause a problem, and if the prep pad was small and made out of paper-like material it shouldn’t cause a problem in the gastrointestinal tract either. You should watch for vomiting or diarrhea but I doubt C will have any issues.
